  • Interlude Aleph: The Cracks In The Sky
    Feb 23 2016

    "Richard Nixon was confused and upset.

    It wasn’t that he hadn't expected problems. He’d only been on the job six weeks, but he knew a president had to be ready for anything. But "anything" was supposed to mean economic downturns, or crime waves, or The Russians.

    Instead Apollo 8 had crashed into some kind of weird space glass, the sky was cracking open, the clouds were forming ominous patterns, and Tuesdays had stopped happening."

We call it Ithaca."
